Hoping to find a good power cord at a sane price $500.00 or less for a VTL ST 150 tube amp. Uses 8 6550's. Wonder about Triode labs; Shunyata Venom 3 HC and others. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Recently I changed all power cords in my system with Triode Wires.
Recommended wholeheartedly!
Do you use a tube amp? Are the TWL quick? I don't want to slow anything.
Thanks
Ben- any update?
No, I have a solid state system.
I wouldn't say never that they slow down sound, on the contrary they are very natural in their presentation, as concerns dynamics, soundstage and detail.
Anyway you can address the question to Pete, he is a very nice guy, maybe he can tell you more about using his cables with tubes.
My guess is that they should work very well.
Sorry if I can't be more precise on their use with tubes.
Ultimately, we all have to trust our ears!
Shunyata sounded not so nice on top, too edgy, I like Richard Grays for that analog application. Unshielded wire. Always try lifted safety ground too whatever you get

Hello Ben-
I follow all of the Audio Shows circuit every year and the VTL brand is mated w/ many cables/cords. Best bet would be to contact VTL.
Kind of interested in the brand (Triode Labs).
I would like to demo these cables/cords as well.
I think that at some point in time, VTL was matched w/ Triode Labs cables/cords at an Audio Show.
Do you have a VTL or TL dealer/retailer where you are located?
I believe Triode Labs sells direct. Yes there is a VTL dealer (Don better) in my region.
I know about Don Better- never had an opportunity to visit. Have you auditioned Don Better?
Yes. Good dealer.
He is on my 'bucket-list' if you will.
Good luck with your 'list'.
Triode Wires will be attending the NYC audio show.
